Cold front finally got here. Thank goodness I have relief from the migraine
that lasted 4 days this time. I had to go to Walgreens yesterday and it was
an in-and-out trip, grab what I needed and run for the door so I didn't kill
anyone or have a full scale meltdown at the register.

Just OK. "Some" improvement. The coffee isn't hammering me as much as it did the first few days, but still too much. Too tense and have to force myself to eat in the morning. Duration is somewhat cut, but still ~4 hours. I have noticed that Energy level drops off around the time I normally have the coffee, but this may be in my head. I still have my fingers crossed that this will work out. I'll evaluate next Monday and go from there.

How are you? Fuzzling and hubby OK? -LN

If I understood right it's mostly the taste of coffee that you are missing with its stimulating properties being an unwanted side effects. When I started taking stimulants I switched from coffee to tea though id never been a tea drinker before. I first tried decaf coffee but like you said it's mostly vile. Now I love the taste of tea and the busy that it gives me is much smoother and much more pleasant than that of coffee (if you can call it a buzz at all.).

Maybe this isn't something for you but it light be worth considering.

Also remember to up your water intake if your having more caffeine. That might help with the unpleasant buzz as well.

Hubby and fuzzling are fine. Well, fuzzling has a cold as always and is waking up every 2h at night. I'm exhausted. I've also got an eye infection again and a cold..and my voice is gone....

Actually rant not over. I'm super stressed. Not just about work but also my parents. They aren't doing well. I wish I could help them but I'm barely able to listen to their problems. Maybe if I could listen I would actually figure out a solution.

I'm also really annoyed about the eye infection. It's the last thing I needed right now. Last time it took more than a month to clear and I had to see the eye specialist in the hospital. I could have called them directly this time round rather than go through the long process of getting a referral from my GP but ive got no idea where I've put their number.
